Episode 815
Jin Tianxi was startled by Sima Xuan’s voice.
“Well… I said it with the hope that you will become kinder in the future.”
Oh, I feel stupid.
Normally, I can say crazy things calmly and calmly, but why can’t I say anything like this smoothly?
At first, I tried to say that I didn’t know it was you, but I felt like my words were being crude, so I kept my mouth shut.
For some reason, my cheeks feel hot.
“It’s unfortunate… and sad. Both you and Hye-ah. So I wanted to save it.”
“….”
Sima Hyeon closes his eyes.
Jin Cheon-hee tried hard not to pay attention to what he was thinking.
“what. After that… Hye-ah also became healthy. I am very satisfied because you are living well too. But… I think they were probably brought in by the Blood Mission recently.”
Sima Xuan asked with his eyes still closed.
“what?”
“You in another world who lost Hye-ah. You were in the prophecy. “I don’t know how they did it, and I don’t even know if it’s possible.”
Oh, I don’t even trust me.
Little Cheonhee muttered behind her.
But what would be the point of telling a lie here?
Jin Cheon-hee continued.
“I didn’t think so either… I felt a sense of déjà vu while looking at various things and trying to make inferences… um… otherwise the pieces wouldn’t fit together.”
It was something that went beyond common sense. But in the end, isn’t he also a person from another world?
At first, I thought a few times that it wasn’t the case, that there must be something more I didn’t know about.
Sima Hye’s hairpin.
After seeing two hairpins that couldn’t be in the same time zone, I decided to break the stereotype.
‘It’s not like me.’
Where has Il-gwang, who always confidently talked about being crazy, gone?
“That’s what the blood missions call it.”
Baekcheon-gun.
One of the characters in The Love Story.
“Uh… you may not believe me, but you have to be careful. Hyuna. “That guy would be another you.”
“Have I gone crazy since Hye-ah died?”
“huh. “You might not believe it, but.”
“….”
Sima Xuan closed his eyes and still said nothing.
A moment that seemed like an eternity passes by.
The tea had completely cooled down.
Feeling the chill, Jin Cheonhee stayed still. Sima Hyeon’s answer.
Because he did everything he could, whether he believed it or not.
Because I have to protect Hye-ah.
We played together for a long time, not even for a moment, but Hye-ah did not recognize her older brother. If so, it could happen two or three times.
“….”
Silence continues.
The two looked at the cold tea for a while.
Eventually, it was Sima Hyeon who opened his mouth first.
“I see. That’s why it sometimes seemed like he knew the future.”
“Do you believe me?”
Sima Hyeon looks closely at Jin Tianxi’s dark eyes shaking.
My brother deliberately did not use the Xuanyuan Zhendan Xingong.
The reason was obvious.
He must have hoped that people would believe in him even just a little bit.
But isn’t that the same for Sima Xuan?
A group of beggars who perform in the bottom of Hangzhou and sometimes pickpocket.
Because there was only one adult in front of me who believed in such a child.
“It’s not that I believe it, I just think it’s true because it’s true. There’s no way my brother would have lied about Hye-ah’s life. Of course, there may be some things that aren’t said, right? “There’s probably a reason for that.”
“Haaaaa.”
Jin Cheon-hee put down the teacup and covered her eyes with both hands.
Doesn’t it make your ears perk up?
“what’s the matter?”
“No, just a little. “I’m relaxed.”
“In the first place, what kind of person could come up with such amazing dishes? If I said I saw it in a dream, it would make sense. Of course, that is also a cross-section of reality. “Is this like a metaphor from another world?”
I didn’t expect to understand it right away.
“I can’t believe you thought it was something to eat and not an invention.”
“You can’t fake eating. They say that the taste of home that I ate when I was young will last a lifetime, but some dishes were not available anywhere in Jungwon.”
“Like french fries?”
“huh. That’s one of them. Something like chicken ribs filled with cheese.”
“You don’t even call it Gunrak.”
“Because my brother calls me cheese.”
“….”
It seems like Sima Hyeon already had some idea of what was going on. For some reason, I felt embarrassed.
‘Kwaaah, it would have been better if I had just thought it was because I was a crazy person like everyone else and moved on!’
I felt like I was going to die of shame.
“Do you know Baeklin?”
“Well, Master… I know roughly.”
Before the Master went to the imperial palace, the Master and his disciple talked about many things.
A conversation to be had while naked and stuck with countless long needles and unable to move from the neck down.
Although it may seem a bit strange, Jin Cheon-hee was more honest than anyone else. The same thing happened to the teacher who heard it.
“You knowingly left your brother like this? That’s a lot of patience. After all, it’s not human. “That guy.”
“Hehehehe… Because you are the teacher. “Because that’s my teacher.”
Laugh like an idiot.
Seeing that somehow made Sima Hyeon feel bad, so he reheated the tea.
“Am I the first among your sworn brothers?”
“Ha-ryun… I think he probably didn’t notice, but then you’re the first to get hit.”
“Huh~”
Sima Hyun’s eyes narrowed.
“You don’t care about Chunwoo at all, do you?”
“Cheonwoo? “Ah, Cheonwoo doesn’t really notice things like that.”
“Probably not. The dullest among us is Yeo Ha-ryun, not Cheon-woo. I knew and pretended not to know. He doesn’t even ask questions. “He doesn’t show any signs of surprise or suspicion.”
“So, Cheonwoo….”
“That’s enough. “Hyung, let’s say you are the most dependable second brother among brothers.”
I don’t know why Sima Xuan looks at Tianyu like this.
‘Mudang Kwonje also said that Cheonwoo was a fox.’
Even though he’s a kid who doesn’t know anything about it.
“Cheonwoo is so trusting of people that I’m worried.”
When I have to lie in front of Cheonwoo, my heart tingles.
“Aren’t you worried about me?”
“Because you know what you’re good at.”
At those words, Sima Xuan poured boiling water into Jin Tianxi’s cup.
“Hey hey! Are you even jealous of Cheonwoo? “I told you first.”
“Gaga~ The younger brother’s heart is really delicate.”
okay. I guess so.
Just like that, Sima Xuan threw away the tea in Jin Tianxi’s cup and poured another cup of tea. This time, it was Baekhwacha that we made with sincerity.
As the name suggests, white petals were placed in tea water and flowed out.
Thanks to the deep floral scent, it felt as if spring had bloomed alone in the midst of winter.
“It’s cooked well.”
“Because my brother likes cars. I practiced. “I don’t understand that bitter tea.”
“coffee?”
“okay. that.”
Jin Cheonhee laughed. Even though it doesn’t seem like Sima County, it’s secretly a kid’s taste.
“I’ll make it sweet for you later.”
It would have been amazing if you put a bucket of ice on it and topped it with whipped cream.
‘I also sprinkle chocolate syrup. very.’
So I decided to give my younger brother an iced latte, high in high fructose corn syrup, the enemy of fatty liver disease, and took a sip of the tea.
The scent of flowers penetrates deeply into the nasal passages.
It was a scent that brightened a person’s mood.
“I have something to say to my brother.”
“hmm? tell me. “What are you talking about?”
Sima Xuan put down the teapot and said this.
“Thank you.”
“hmm?”
“If it were me… I would try to kill you. Wouldn’t it be better to just kill him when he’s weak and get the best of him rather than trying to do something about him by keeping him alive if he becomes dangerous in the future?”
Cutting off the possibility itself by uprooting it from the roots at a young age.
A way to cleanly push things away without leaving any room to do anything in the first place.
What could be more future-oriented than that?
However, Jin Cheon-hee responded as if she had heard a terrible sound.
“How can you do that to a child? “Would you have wanted to do that?”
“I don’t know. “Maybe it’s because I want to do that.”
Sima Xuan closed his eyes and tilted his head back.
“I had a hard time raising my younger siblings back then, but I still lived a good life, right? So I thought heaven was helping me, but it was a bit of a shock. Still. “My brother.”
Sound –
Sima Hyun cracks his knuckles and makes a sound.
“My brother saved Hye-ah. You didn’t let my star go out. “Hmm…”
Sima Xuan’s leisurely voice trembled strangely.
Sima Xuan’s eyes were a little wet and shaken.
It was tears.
Jin Cheon-hee was embarrassed and said in a panic.
“Oh no! That’s natural. You were young! Both you and Hye-ah. Since he was a doctor, of course he treated him. “That’s it.”
While saying that, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to Sima Xuan.
It was a Baekjamsa handkerchief that Sima Hyeon had given as a gift at the Yongbong branch in the past.
Jin Cheon-hee also haphazardly took out everything she could get her hands on, but seeing the item filled with old memories made her laugh for some reason and the two of them couldn’t stop laughing.
In the end, the only sound that can be heard in the tea room is the sound of two people bursting out laughing.
After laughing for a while, I opened my mouth.
“My brother complained to me at the time that Sapa had so much money that he made handkerchiefs out of precious white silk.”
“No, I didn’t say it out loud. Hyuna?”
“I just saw it in my attitude, didn’t I?”
It was true. Because I really thought so.
“No, but Hyuna. Baekjamsa Temple is quite a treasure from a small or medium-sized sect. “What kind of crazy person would make a handkerchief out of it and give it as a gift?”
“Oh, that’s it. But it’s nice to use it well.”
After saying that, he took a handkerchief and wiped his eyes.
“As expected, Baekjamsa is the best when it comes to handkerchiefs.”
okay. Your money is rotting and overflowing, so what’s there to worry about?
Sima Hyeon, who was wiping away his tears, said:
“But brother.”
“uh.”
“So you’re a middle-aged angel? “Do you count your age in your dreams?”
This guy. Why are you so sharp in such a strange place…?
* * *
Sima Xuan and Jin Tianxi talked for a long time.
About what happened in the past and what will happen in the future.
After Jin Cheon-hee confessed, her voice became much lighter, as if she felt relieved.
After the two people finished their conversation, Jin Cheonhee immediately headed somewhere.
Probably seeing patients, looking at documents, or heading to the research center.
Sima Xuan received a place to stay and headed to the guest room.
I didn’t want to talk to other people in this situation.
Because there was a lot to think about.
So, I went to unpack my luggage in the direction of an outbuilding that was as remote as possible.
The place my brother gave me was a very nice villa with a hot spring.
There, I put down my luggage and immediately took off my clothes to wash.
Sima Xuan’s body was full of scars, but strangely enough, there was not a single wound on his back.
Because essentially he trusts no one.
Except for my brother and Hye-ah.
Even though he was stabbed in the back by these two people, Sima Xuan has no intention of holding any grudges.
To Sima Hyeon, the two people were okay, and he himself was a cheap guy who deserved it.
I’ve been thinking about guilt for a long time.
Something like guilt about the person I killed.
It was also the reason why my brother did not take anyone’s life in Gangho.
However, no matter how much he thought about it, Sima Xuan himself did not have a single regret for killing the man.
On the contrary, there were times when I felt joy.
Are you not sure about the soul that people talk about?
Or maybe he suffered a head injury when he was young and became strange, I don’t know.
Of course, there is no such thing as killing people for fun.
As long as he is in Sapa, he cannot help but get his hands dirty, but compared to other executioners, he lives with some restraint.
Many members of the Jinhyeolbang family had already accepted Sima Hyeon as their lord even when the succession had not been decided.
Although it was something I did as a member of a faction, I also gave a lot of kindness to Gangho in my own way.
Is that why you don’t feel anything when you kill someone? There was a time when I thought, There was.
‘I think I understand now.’
Wow –
Sima Hyeon washed his body lightly and took a dip in the hot spring.
“Attette~”
Feeling drowsy.
There was a bottle of fruit wine in the corner of the hot spring.
It seems to be for VIPs.
Sima Xuan had a lot of money and felt quite extravagant, so he poured himself a glass of wine.
“It’s good.”
As expected, it is a sweet drink that is not intoxicating at all.
Just a drink for kids.
I think they put it out there just to get in the mood.
The mountains stretching out far outside the hot springs are spectacular.
I thought it was such a waste to use such a beautiful place as a royal palace instead of a resort, but I also thought it was good because it was my brother’s place to stay.
This is a place designed and built by my brother, from water pipes to every single sculpture.
I know that my brother even planned and laid the pipes that carry the hot spring water.
“Just like my daughter.”
Isn’t this a very gentle plan?
‘On the other hand, am I an evil beast appointed by heaven?’
It seems like there are a lot of things that are done to the point where it would be a shame to call this a Madou of the Demonic Cult.
‘Pleural effusion… or malignant? There is usually a saying in the Gangho that calls such an unprecedented bastard.’
Isn’t it a shame to call him Goena Gwangma?
From his natural personality to his background, didn’t he deserve to be a bad guy?
A guy who falls into the path of evil without anyone having to push his back, and goes around butchering people.
A guy who would enjoy even the game of struggling in blood.
“Whoa….”
Cheers.
Cheers to the guy who never met his brother.
Sima Hyun, who was giggling, suddenly turned into a frighteningly expressionless expression.
‘Hye-ah died. I am the only survivor… what will I do if I see Hye-ah again?’
take a sip of alcohol
Even though it is a drink for kids, it strangely makes you feel drunk.
I can’t get drunk, it’s just water with fruit in it.
‘But what would you do if there was someone other than yourself in that place?’
Why did that guy go to the desert?
No, let’s change the question.
Although they have gone through different journeys, he is essentially who he is.
He has the same martial arts skills as himself, the same character as himself, and is essentially the same as himself… but he carries with him a depth of despair and madness that cannot be compared.
So, it won’t be an ordinary question.
‘I’ accumulated so much ‘merit’ that I went to the desert to use it somewhere, right?
To really become a blood line?
Sima Xuan quickly reaches the most important question.
‘What is possible when you become a blood line?’
